would love a summary of this if anyone watches

At the beginning of the year when XHS blew up over here I got on to see what the hype was about.

Pretty quickly I got into the communist algorithm and ended up in a group chat with around 100 self identified communists from around the world.

The user who started that one was a youth league member from Hubei who was in college and was saying he and his peers identify as new Maoists and were saying they want a cultural revolution but without all the violence and failures of the original one. He made it seem like it was becoming a large movement in that age range, which was good to hear at the time.

Hearing your report almost a year later keeps that hope alive

I watched a couple episodes and couldn’t get into it. I wish the writers of adaptations were more involved in the creative process for the adaptations

Won’t be enough for all the China haters but it’s actually more help than all the China haters will ever amount to combined.

South of the border by Oliver stone is not only an Venezuela but is good

They didn’t see most people as humans. They care about us in the same way a farmer cares about their cattle.

Ironically this person is married into a bourgeois family and is themselves a petty bourgeois lawyer

If the Venezuela terms aren’t in writing, it could be a situation where Russia says what the US wants to hear and then continues to support Venezuela anyway. Russia has the advantage in Ukraine and so if the deal falls apart because Russia supports Venezuela it will only serve to further demoralize Ukraine before fighting resumes, which still helps Russia.

It’s the comic where the guy keeps getting more and more Nazi but saying he is only doing it because he keeps getting called a Nazi

In most of Latin America the media is controlled entirely by capitalists, many of which live and operate out of Miami. I can’t speak to Peru specifically, but when the majority of media people see and hear on TV, radio and the Internet saying one thing, it implants in the brain as “common knowledge,” and becomes a default belief without much question

Yes it has long seemed that the post Deng era is “use capitalist economic fundamentals against the capitalists,” which has been working better than any other nation in providing an increasingly better quality of life for their citizens while preparing the ground for the downfall of the imperial core.

And much less likely than the northern American Confederacy to return

Delhi is an awful place and I highly recommend avoiding it
